Pioneer chainsaws

[Arrowhead]

P62, Very nice P41. That was a great find! They look soooo nice with all the paint on them.

Lawrence, That's a nice 650. Like P62 said, I never seen that Pioneer chain decal before. If I were you I would take some close up pics with a ruler beside it. If you ever plan on restoring it you can have the decal duplicated.

 

[Arrowhead]

Just an FYI theres a 1200A on e-bay under the buy it now only tab. They only want $30. They say it runs great. I would get it but I have too many to complete as it is.

I've seen that Pioneer chain decal/logo thing before somewhere, but I don't think it was on a saw. Maybe in a chainsaw book or something.

Lawrence,
Nice pair of saws I see that the older ones are starting to fill out your collection. Great find.

Hi Fellas,Picked these two 650's up a few day's back, they were both attached to an Alaskan Jr mill.I know the recoil is shot on one of the saws,and clutch cover has a hole right through it on the other saw.Other than that I don't know much about them.I will have to start cleaning them up and see what's needed,Oh yea one of the saws also has a couple of cracks in the top cover.

Lawrence-

Good work, those are two enjoyable old saws. I see one has the name "Fournier" scratched into it. I cut timber with a Paul Fournier in the early 90's up around Sweethome, OR. He was a good cat with a very unusual sense of humor. Ask him about the time he put axle grease on the underneath of the door handle to my pickup, Or the time he spray-painted a hot pink stripe above the rim of my hardhat.

Pioneer p50 muffler

Arrowhead hi, Thanks for looking for the part, not quite despairaton stakes yet I`ll have to keep welding on patches `til I end up with more patch than muffler but if you do come across 1 I`d be extreemly grateful Al.

Any body interested in a P65?

A Pioneer Partner P65? You have my interest. Can you post a couple of photos and let us have a look.

 

[propliner]

Scooter, I've been interested in that P65 for two years now. Are you thinking of selling?

Little Al, I can not seem to find that muffler cover. I know I had an extra, but I searched all my boxes of parts and can't locate it. If I find it I will let you know. Does anyone else here have an outer muffler cover for a P50 to help him out?

Al I just got back from a long jaunt at work and opened up the parts box you sent. There is a P50 muffler cover in it. Maybe you sent it to the wrong guy. Anyways, I'd be happy to ship it to Little Al in France. Send me a P.M.

By the way, P62, nice P41S. If that's an original bar, it's got to be nearly perfect inside. It's a beautiful collector saw.

Lawrence, those 650's are great. You're into new territory now. Let me know how you like them.

That cover should have been for a P61. (front exit)

Lawrence-

The old boy I worked with was from Grand Forks. He was about 59-60 or so in 1994. He's out of cutting now, he carves totem poles and makes cabinetry. He was running a P-62 and a P-655 when I worked with him. He had one modern saw, a Husqvarna 272, and said it was plastic garbage.

Sorry, Ed. You're right... it is a front exit cover. I saw one of these on a Farmsaw once and it sure did make a mess of the right side with the exhaust trying to squeeze through the gap. Thanks for the parts, everything looks great!

 

[Jacob J.]

Is there someone that needs a rear or side exit muffler?

 

[propliner]

Jacob, Little Al needs a side exit cover with the big hole.

Also, do you have a rear-exit muffler that you could spare? I'm looking for one right now.

 

[Jacob J.]

I'll look tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I have a freebie used rear-exit muffler housing. I think I sold my last side discharge cover to Ed.

 

[propliner]

LittleAl, I was rummaging through my used parts and found a nice P50 muffler with the big side exit... PM sent.
